Somebody has probably already figured t...Hi there! Somebody has probably already figured this out by now, but just in case they haven&#39;t, I thought I should post this! A solution to the start/stop problem! My solution is for when you&#39;re working on a fleece blanket, and you want to hand-sew a blanket stitch edging for it. What you do is, you roll the edge over a bit. Like, you&#39;re making a narrow &quot;rolled hem&quot;. Just roll the fleece over a bit, about 1/4 of an inch or a bit more. That gives you a place to hide your knots when you&#39;re stopping and starting a thread! To start your thread, of course knot it, and tuck your threaded needle into the &quot;rolled hem&quot;. Use your fingers to hold it down, and begin your blanket stitch as usual, stitching over the little section of &quot;rolled hem&quot; where you&#39;ve hidden your starting knot. Continue on, rolling the edge of the fleece as you go along, until you come to the end of your thread, or where you&#39;d like to end your thread. Again, tuck your threaded needle into the &quot;rolled hem.&quot; Knot your thread, hiding it in the roll. Then, re-thread your needle, knot it, and hide the knot in the roll very close to, or on top of, the ending knot from your previous thread. Then, begin again to sew your blanket stitch as usual, continuing to &quot;roll&quot; the edge of the fleece as you go along. I&#39;m still working on my first fleece throw using this solution, and so far I really like the result! It gives the edge a pretty little finished look, almost like a scallop but not quite. Very easy and what a relief to finally have a solution to this rather frustrating sewing dilemma!EN https://www.blogger.com/profile/08701403225900579642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7752547076410097674.post-17578478324110432852010-09-06T14:56:46.319-04:002010-09-06T14:56:46.319-04:00Hi Claire!

I&#39;d suggest hiding your starting knot behind the one you used to finish your first thread. So, knot your new thread and bring it through the first knot so both knots lay close together, then continue on. If you can manage to end at a corner it will probably be less visible.janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13373382919479493215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7752547076410097674.post-4872892368056975802010-09-04T17:00:08.991-04:002010-09-04T17:00:08.991-04:00Hi.

I was having the darndest time trying to START my blanket stitch and I looked in 3 books and a bunch of websites before I finally found instructions that made sense. Yes, apparently I&#39;m an idiot, but I wasn&#39;t going to be happy with the first stitch looking wonky.

Much easier to see it in a step-by-step tutorial and that&#39;s why I started Stitch School.<br /><br />Zoe, I&#39;m very late answering you—sorry about that. It only matters that you don&#39;t leave too wide a space between stitches because your bottom loop will be long. Mostly I&#39;ve seen it about 1/4-1/2 inch apart. It doesn&#39;t hurt to do it closer but any wider might cause the problems you mention.janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13373382919479493215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7752547076410097674.post-90363512522744366752010-06-18T08:37:09.273-04:002010-06-18T08:37:09.273-04:00Hi!
